Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Double Bass Music

I have been teaching music for the past 25 years. First in the Public Schools in Tennessee and Florida and at the college level.

I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
